As an example, you may want to review the St. Louis profile in the Elephant Exhibit Design Resource. Step 2: Please refer to the supplemental questions on the component list below (or Appendix B in the Elephant Exhibit Design Resource Guide) to help prompt your descriptions regarding each of the components you wish to discuss. Wherever possible please provide photographs, preferably digital, and/or drawings. Step 3: Gain input from a variety of users (curators, managers, keepers and vets) who may have a variety of ideas about the merits of the design. Step 4: Submit form to Guy Lichty for review and inclusion in the Elephant Exhibit Design Resource.
